OM SYSTEM PEN Mirrorless Camera with 14-42mm III Lens (Silver)

Mirrorless Power in Your Pocket

The OM SYSTEM PEN Mirrorless Camera combines the creative capabilities of a full-featured mirrorless camera with a compact, highly portable design. Featuring a high-resolution Micro Four Thirds sensor, fast autofocus, and a wide selection of unique Art Filters, the PEN makes it easy to capture personal moments with a creative touch. Whether you're a first-time interchangeable-lens camera user or a professional looking for a portable everyday camera, the PEN is well suited for street photography, days at the skatepark, or nights out with friends. Its slim design fits comfortably in your hand, making it easy to capture candid moments and beautiful scenes wherever you go.

A Redesigned Classic

From the original PEN film camera to the first digital PEN introduced in 2009, the PEN series has combined portability with capable imaging performance. The latest PEN continues this legacy with a Micro Four Thirds mirrorless system that keeps both the camera body and lenses smaller and lighter than full-frame alternatives while delivering detailed images, wide dynamic range, and vibrant colors.

Extreme Portability

Designed to go wherever you do, the PEN makes it easier to capture moments when a smartphone isn't enough or a larger camera would be inconvenient. Its slim body and low-profile ergonomic grip fit comfortably in your hand or bag, remaining unobtrusive until you need it. Whether you're heading out on a long hike or shooting throughout the day, the lightweight design helps keep the camera comfortable in your hand or on your shoulder.

Built for Adventure

The PEN can be used in a variety of weather conditions with an IPX1 water-resistance rating when paired with separately available splashproof OM SYSTEM lenses. This protection helps shield the camera from vertically falling water, such as light rain, so you can continue shooting when conditions aren't perfectly sunny.

Beginner-Friendly, Pro-Ready

A powerful in-body image stabilization system, accurate autofocus, and specialized scene settings make it easy to capture sharp, beautiful images with the PEN, whether it's your first camera or your hundredth. Interchangeable lenses and a larger sensor than those found in comparably sized cameras provide strong low-light performance and crisp subject separation for compelling images in a wide range of situations.

An intuitive user interface and conveniently positioned buttons and dials keep essential controls within easy reach, allowing you to spend less time navigating menus and more time experimenting with your photography and developing your own style.

As your skills grow, the PEN offers a range of advanced features to support more demanding shooting:

• Continuous shooting at up to 30 fps helps you capture decisive moments, from sports action in the stands to birds in your backyard.
• Focus stacking and in-camera or bracketed HDR make it easier to create detailed landscapes and capture starry skies with the camera and a tripod.
• In-camera multiple exposure shooting lets you create creatively blended images without requiring post-processing.

A hot shoe allows you to mount a flash and supports synchronization speeds of up to 1/250 second with front- and rear-curtain sync. This gives you greater flexibility to experiment with artificial lighting and expand your creative options.

The 20.4MP sensor produces images suitable for large prints while maintaining excellent image quality. When even greater detail is required, the PEN's High Res shooting mode combines multiple exposures in-camera to create highly detailed images suited to large prints or significant cropping.

Programmable Profiles

The PEN's profile control menu lets you switch between multiple color and monochrome image profiles. Create customized combinations of color profiles, curves, sharpness, and other settings for different shooting situations, then switch between them as needed to reduce the amount of post-processing required.

For additional creativity without editing, the PEN includes a wide range of distinctive Art Filters. Quickly transition from grainy black-and-white street photography to soft, dreamy portraits, or create miniature-style video effects with the press of a button.

Available Art Filters include Pop Art, Soft Focus, Pale & Light Color, Light Tone, Grainy Film, Pin Hole, Diorama, Cross Process, Gentle Sepia, Dramatic Tone, Key Line, Watercolor, Vintage, Partial Color (18 Color), Bleach Bypass, and Instant Film.

Video on the Go

A single photograph can't always capture the entire moment. The PEN combines portability with versatile video capabilities, making it easy to create travel videos, home movies, and high-quality social media content.

Face/Eye Detection AF with human and animal recognition helps maintain sharp focus on your subject, even when the camera is facing you. For manual, cinema-style focusing, focus peaking and magnification provide additional assistance for achieving precise focus.

Connect an external microphone through the 3.5mm port to record 24-bit audio directly in the camera, making it easier to produce polished multimedia content with minimal editing.

The PEN can record 4K video at 24 fps or capture ultra-slow-motion footage at up to 120 fps, giving you a highly portable camera for both everyday photography and video creation.

OM Image Share App

Use the OM Image Share app to remotely control the PEN, adjust camera settings, and trigger the shutter while viewing a Live View preview of your composition. Remote shutter mode is also available for a simpler wireless shooting experience without a frame preview.

The app allows you to quickly transfer photos to your smartphone and perform basic edits, making it possible to start sharing your images before you even return home.

Create your own library of editing profiles in the Image Share app to develop a distinctive visual style, then share those profiles with others for a collaborative creative workflow.

When connected to the app, GPS information can also be recorded, helping you maintain a detailed record of where your favorite images were captured.
